Wearable Device Apps Development

Let’s talk about that wearable bandwagon

Wearable technology seems to be the latest buzz, but how many people have actually jumped on the bandwagon? Apple’s recently launched smartwatch was the latest addition to wearable tech gadgets. While it drew significant interest, recent research by GlobalWebIndex suggests that most adults are not partaking in the wearable technology trend.

GlobalWebIndex surveyed 170,000 adults, across 32 markets and only 9 percent report owning a smartwatch and a mere 7 percent own smart wristbands. This is in heavy contrast to the 80 percent of adult who own a smartphone.

While smartphone ownership has reached an all-time high, according to the survey, it has yet to overtake the 91 percent of people who current use PCs to access the Internet. A surprising fact of the research: only 47 percent of those surveyed use a tablet.

Wearable’s Split

In the nascent world of wearables, there have been two camps. The fitness trackers, like a Fitbit or a Jawbone, and the smartwatches, like Android Wear and the Apple Watch. The common thinking has been that these two camps will soon converge, and there’s been a lot of evidence that such a future is not far off. Fitness tracking is a big component of the Apple Watch and a number of Android Wear devices, and Fitbit’s latest models have a lot of smartwatch capabilities to augment their fitness tracking.

Yet while many smartwatches have fitness tracking and many fitness trackers have smartwatch features, both options demand compromises. You either choose between great fitness-tracking features or smartwatch productivity.

All Possible Wearables in Future

Wearable App Design & Development

Wearable Technology is one of the hottest topics in technology and consumer electronics industries. By the end of 2014, there were more than 35 million wearable devices in use. The growth of wearable devices has created a huge market for startups, enterprises and individual app developers. Thanks to Android Wear, Samsung Gear and other wearable devices that are incorporated with mobile applications are now helping people enhance their lives, staying healthy and being more productive. And this trend is expected to get a major boost with the arrival of Apple iWatch in April, 2015.
Many businesses are now recognizing the need to build an app for wearable devices or integrate their existing mobile application with wearables. But, wearable app development can be challenging due to the technology being still unripe. Choosing the right developer is very crucial to the success of your app. You need a matured development partner to reduce the chances of failure.
